How to fertilize Crab Apple
Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Crab Apple after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Pink Lady Apple tree lost it’s leaves I noticed today she’s just about bald. We’ve had a lot of rain, humidity & sun this past week in TX. Touched the soil down to my 3rd knuckle and it was a little dry but not bad enough to cause fallen leaves. Put a little vitamin water in this past Sunday as well. I’m new to the fruit & citrus tree game. What am I and what did I do wrong here? How can I help her? Can I help her?
